Training

Below is how Hailey has dedicated herself towards developing her craft:

"I’ve worked hard at developing my artistry, eagerly taking classes whenever possible. This includes (but not limited to) maintaining form, building strength, and stamina at local dance studios or taking a class when I travel. I seek local workshops to build my tool kit as both an artist and educator.

September - December 2020

WORKSHOP: Vocal and Physical Freedom with Camel Amit

Using Grotowski method, this workshop taught me how to trust more of my impulses. It is working on the mind and body connection, as well as exploring how movement affects the voice. Every class we did different exercises as a warm-up as well as applied given text into them. Multi-tasking was critical to the work in addition to being honest and present.
